He separates in order to unite

For Mom

Dear beloved one,

I know you’re sad

it will turn good after it gets bad.

You have not lost me to Him

But I found you in Him.

You have not lost them with no return

They are yours in Him, you can stop to mourn.

He did not just separate us

but as He separates, thus

It is to unite

What He did was ignite.

As He opens your wounded heart

He mends it together.

He does not tear it apart,

But He keeps it forever.

It seems to you, I’m lost

You have not lost me to Him

But have trust, I’m found.

As I found you in Him.

He saw you all this time

Now I see you, too.

You will see Him, yes you.

You know now it’s time.

Let your pain lead you to the Son

Who can make us all one

Do not have fear, o beloved soul

He came here to make us whole.

So I take my cross and carry it to Him

I hold it tight, as He washes away all the sins

So I lift my head and praise what He has done

O dear beloved, He separates to make us one.
